10-24 x 3/4 Oval Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert gives designers a rounded-contact set screw for shafts, grooves, and seats that may not be perfectly square. The nylon insert works in the female thread, adding prevailing torque while the oval point handles surface contact. Specify the heat-treated alloy steel body with nylon pellet when the print calls for mechanical set screw hardware, not a stainless substitute.
Typical uses include adjustment collars that are repositioned between production runs without changing the basic hardware. The polymer insert changes the service envelope versus an all-metal screw, so review heat exposure before specifying it.
Since 1962, Cold Headers has helped buyers distinguish similar socket set screws by point geometry and locking feature. Check thread size, length, socket size, pellet dimensions, groove or seat condition, and surface-marking tolerance before substitution.
